Are you going for direct translation. Like Raendee, or are you
going for meaning of the name, which I don't know what is means,
but I suspect it is a shortening of another longer name like
Randolph or like, of which you willl have to find it out to
translate.

Like mine in Mike, but it is Michael, which is "Like on to God"
or something. Actually more like "Like on to thr Lord". Which
would be interesting to translate into Quenya and Tengwar. The
version I did my self, changes Michael (Miikul) as something lime
Kimbatul or like.

Mike

Actually, it's really just Randy - not short for anything else...
and Starfire is just an old name that I've used for a long while as
a screen name, email, company - stuff like that. For Randy, I
figured there wouldn't be anything other than a "letters" matching
type thing... for Starfire, I figure that Star and Fire both have
been defined in Quenya already, but I let Tengwar Scribe transcribe
it anyway.

Given the actual translation of "Randy" in British and Australian
slang, I'd probably NOT want to translate the meanings :)

Thanks!

Actually, 'who is like unto God' is correct; 'El' means 'God' in Hebrew, no=
t 'Lord' (which is 'Adonai'). According to Helge Hauskanger and Ales Bican, =
'Manveru' is the Quenya translation for Michael. It is a contraction for 'Ma=
n (ná) ve Eru' = 'Who (is) like God'. I trust their judgment. And it's cool =
in tengwar!

Cuio mae, Danny.

El is that not like Al, namely The
Ah is like Lord.

But, I am a dirt scholar, so will have to check again.

Allah = The Lord. Or Lord God?
